Plant mage Briar Moss from the Emelan series. He’s always so fun to draw.

criticalbakes: week #5, People of Exandria

This week’s theme on @criticalbakes​ is NPCs! And, well … while all of Matt Mercer’s NPCs are a delight, there was never any real question which one I was going to bake about.

For Cassandra de Rolo, who really deserves a treat and a nap: Whitestone cream cakes.

“As you come inside, you see Cassandra […] She has a stack of sheets stacked up next to her at this small desk table that she has in front of one of her large red velvet sitting chairs. However, she’s not looking at that right now, as she’s currently enthralled with what looks to be a small stack of cakes and a little tea saucer she’s holding up as she’s sipping.”

– Matt Mercer as narrator, CR1 Episode #94

These cakes (and this is pure headcanon on my part) are traditionally made with blackberries or apples, depending on the season. Blackberries would be tossed with a little sugar and red wine and then just barely warmed through; apples are cooked soft with honey and snow mead. Either way, the fruit goes over sweetened (and possibly liquor-laced) whipped cream on puff pastry, and the whole is drizzled with whatever remains of the cooking sauce.

I don’t really have a recipe for this as such, but if you want the approximate ingredients and method, it’s under the cut.

Ah, le donne… sempre impareggiabili!!!

Ah, women … always unmatched !!!

I want to apologise to

- Britney for making fun of her when she had her breakdown

- Monica Lewinski for judging her when she was a 22year old temp sexually assaulted by the most powerful man in the world

- Ke$ha for ever thinking she was trashy when all she wanted to do was make party music

- Kristen Stewart for ever thinking she was dumb when she’s actually one of the coolest people ever

- Megan Fox for ever thinking she was just a slut when actually she was an actress being harassed by her employer. 

- Hating all the women who made a career out of having a hot body. Being is shape is hard, beauty is a weapon and auto promotion is hard work. 

- All the Mary-Sues, who exist because young girls everywhere want to be part of a story they love so much

- All the female characters I ever snobbed because they got in the way of my ship.

- Hating the color pink during my teenage years, when it’s actually a lovely color and what I resented was society’s pressure to perform femininity. 

I AM ABSOLUTELY LOSING MY MIND AFTER READING THIS PLEASE READ IT
